Starting with 2005, the abstracts of the annual Linz Seminar on Fuzzy Set Theory are typeset in \LaTeX\ using the
Springer document class {\tt llncs.cls} (standard class for Lecture Notes in Computer Science). Therefore, authors are
strongly advised to use that document class or the corresponding author's kit for
Microsoft\textsuperscript{\textcircled{\tiny R}} Word. Detailed information (including links to Springer's
instructions and downloads) is available under the following URL:

To simplify the merge of the individual chapters, some basic instructions should be taken into account:

\begin{itemize}
\item Do not use any packages that are not in the standard \LaTeX\
distribution (as, for instance, in Mik\TeX\ 2.1)!
\item Avoid self-written macros wherever possible; if they are not avoidable, please be so kind and
prefix the macro names with your initials to avoid conflicts; Example: if the initials of the first author are
``A.B.'', it is suggested to define the macros such that they start with \verb+\AB...+, e.g.\
\verb+\ABbigaggregationoperator+ instead of \verb+\bigaggregationoperator+
\item Use a standard style
for typesetting citations. We strongly recommend using Bib\TeX\ with the \verb+plain+ style. \item Use a prefix for
cite keys that uniquely corresponds to your contribution, e.g.\ initials of the
first author. \\
Example: if the initials of the first author are ``A.B.'', you are kindly suggested to use
\verb+\bibitem{ABKleMesPap2000}+ and \verb+\cite{ABKleMesPap2000}+ instead of using \verb+\bibitem{KleMesPap2000}+ and
\verb+\cite{KleMesPap2000}+. This measure will help to avoid multiply defined cite keys and reduces the risk of wrong
references when merging the chapters.
\item Do not use the packages \verb+epsfig+ and \verb+psfig+  to
include graphics! Instead, use the \LaTeXe\ standard package \verb+graphicx+ and the \verb+\includegraphics+ command.
\item Use the \verb+theorem+ package (or alternatively \verb+ntheorem+) to typeset theorem-like environments; please
use \verb+\begin{proof} ... \end{proof}+ for typesetting proofs.
\item Please do not forget to send all relevant files to the organizers (a PDF or PS file of your
chapter (PDF strongly preferred), the \LaTeX\ source of the chapter, all figures). If you use Bib\TeX\, please send the
\verb+.bbl+ file or include the \verb+.bbl+ directly in the \LaTeX\ source file.
\end{itemize}

We are aware that these instructions are rather strict and mean extra work for the authors. We appreciate your kind
understanding!

Here is a sample file that makes all necessary definitions and includes; typesetting of authors and affiliations should
be done analogously to that example:
